Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The implementation of low-dimensional materials in nanodevices requires the transfer or growth of these materials on selected substrates often accompanied by modification of their surfaces by nanostructures.
The precise control of surface physical properties is becoming critical in both fundamental scientific research and applied engineering.
We would like to invite you to submit your work to this Special Issue on "Hybrid Materials and Interfaces: Properties and Applications”.
In particular, topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:
1. Interactions between low dimensional materials and substrates;
2. Charge and phonon transport in hybrid devices;
3. An effect of surface decoration on physical properties of low dimensional materials;
4. Fabrication techniques of hybrid devices and their effect on physical properties of low dimensional materials;
5. Lab-on-chip devices;
6. Micro and nanosensors.
We encourage you to present the latest experimental and theoretical developments in the field, both as original research papers and review articles from leading groups around the world.
Dr. Maciej Wiesner
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Coatings is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
